OBAMA IS IT LEGAL FOR THE U.S. TO KILL A 16-YEAR-OLD U.S. CITIZEN WITH A DRONE? https://www.amnestyusa.org/is-it-legal-for-the-u-s-to-kill-a-16-year-old-u-s-citizen-with-a-drone/

Surviving victims of Obama's genocide program in the middle-east, north-africa:

I am not a racist. Just the opposite. And you know nothing of me whatever racially or otherwise. You are white. I live in the densest portion of DC and racially and economically we're piled on top of each other pretty equally. The one thing you notice here is that economics, money, supersedes race nine times out of ten. For 12 years I was the non-paid advisory neighborhood commissioner to DC for my neighborhood elected by my 2000 neighbors overwhelmingly every time by the Black voters over very-well-financed white opponents the white and black gentrifying interests put up. Except for my first election when I defeated the chairman of our commission who was a corrupt Uncle Tom bougie black. I have noticed that with the younger crowd race by itself is much less an issue and fighting corruption, genocide, and poverty is a given. Good for them. So, as a sideline, I know the workings of DC social strata very well and being called a racist by a white guy is not only water off a duck's back but laughable. Obama in particular has done very well financially playing the race card while killing more Blacks than any president in history and taking what wealth Blacks had accumulated here away to help his banker buddies. All those new $50 million mansions of his aren't coming from being the saviour of the poor against Wall Street and Pharma. The reverse. But he does do an amazing con job, especially to the older crowd and the white guilt trippers. In fact Obama intentionally oversaw the greatest taking of wealth away from Blacks in history. And championing his Big Pharma buddies usually meant Blacks were the ones caught in the middle who weren't poor enough for Medicaid but not well-paid enough for employer insurance programs to afford their prescriptions. There's a reason so many Blacks die without $1000 a month insulin, and Obama gimmicked the price. During his terms Black income plunged in relation to other segments of the population and Black wealth was decimated because of his policies favoring the big banks over, often Black, homeowners they foreclosed on. What little family wealth Blacks had started to accumulate disappeared under his pro-foreclosure policies. As a ironic sidenote, possibly the only other person who was such a disaster to Black home owners was Kamala Harris who as Attorney General in California intervened and stopped the prosecution of Steve Mnuchin for illegally taking 1 million homes in foreclosures in California. He gave her contributions and has come back to be Secretary of the Treasury. Funny how Kamala grilled every Trump appointee except him. Actually not so funny. Jacobian, a very liberal outlet and not the war propaganda press, has a good article on how Obama was an economic disaster for Blacks through his pro-rich policies. How Obama Destroyed Black Wealth https://jacobinmag.com/2017/12/obama-foreclosure-crisis-wealth-inequality ""The Obama presidency was a disaster for middle-class wealth in the United States. Between 2007 and 2016, the average wealth of the bottom 99 percent dropped by $4,500. Over the same period, the average wealth of the top 1 percent rose by $4.9 million.This drop hit the housing wealth of African Americans particularly hard. Outside of home equity, black wealth recovered its 2007 level by 2016. But average black home equity was still $16,700 lower. Much of this decline, we will argue, can be laid at the feet of President Obama. His housing policies led directly to millions of families losing their homes. What’s more, Obama had the power — money, legislative tools, and legal leverage — to sharply ameliorate the foreclosure crisis."" He is a master con artist, no doubt. So smooth, so eloquent, such a bull-shitter. But my "area" is international law and under international law Obama, Biden, Bush, Powell, Clinton, and probably Trump are international war criminals who committed genocide. I haven't seen so many of them lined up to give speeches as honored guests since McCain's 2008 Republican convention. America has got to get out of dehumanizing people of color as animals to be culled and exterminated. And until we do we won't get out of that attitude toward Blacks and Latinx here in the US. Almost every policeman who kills Blacks learned that attitude toward Blacks overseas in the military.I was on the citizen's review board of our DC police area and don't even get me started on police brutality to Black, brown and gays in DC. My block had to recently take in and fight DC police at our doors for 100 teenage mostly Black peaceful demonstrators they were shooting with rubber bullets and tear gassing in our block. And now Mayor Bowser has paved over the "Defund Police" sign BLM painted and wants the DC police budget vastly increased because their supply of tear gas has been depleted. Our DC police are almost 100% combat veterans and very racist and anti-gay. But being called a racist by a white guy? Don't make me wear my keyboard out typing lol's.

Three of the 100,000 Black Lives that Didn't Matter a Shit to Obama in Yemen. Trump is a Pig because he continued the Obama civilian assassination campaign.

Triplets

16 year old American citizen Obama personally had targeted-assassinated. An American first. His head was blown off by a drone. Obama murdered his little sister 2 weeks later. The drone blew her body into many pieces. Obama bragged "I'm really good at killing people". Their father, an Islamist, had been killed weeks before but Obama wanted to instill fear in people of the US drones. How heartless and savage the US can be. Trump praised Obama's assassination program and continued it. Pigs.

First, if you think your or my vote in DC means anything at all you're out of your mind. Second, I don't support either of these pigs, the international war criminal or the moronic buffoon. I work for people and issues that can make a real difference. But I certainly don't glorify the international war criminal, Biden or Obama. This is how fucked up we are in America now. Killing masses of people in genocide is just a minor problem. Very Germany 1933.

Example #1 of a seriously fucked up moral equivalency. "Having to wait a week for a CV test result because of a moronic president is worse than burning millions of people alive or shooting them in their heads". Those lucky Jews in Auschwitz; we had to wait in line for gasoline. And those complaining of all the four-year olds who had bullets put in their heads in Iraq. We had our damn unemployment checks delayed. We should only care about suffering at home. Sorry, to some people genocide is a disqualifier, not a factor. And if we consider dark-skinned people animals overseas, how likely are they to be treated like humans here by police who return from being soldiers?

There is a clear international definition of genocide that Obama/Trump are absolutely clearly guilty of in Yemen, Bush/Clinton/Biden/Powell et al in Iraq, Kennedy/Johnson in Vietnam, Churchill in India murdered 40 million, King Leopold in the Congo murdered 70 million, etc. America is established on genocide where 90% of 80 million natives were killed in our first century. Why are there statues of Grant and Churchill everywhere? Because their genocide while much much larger than Hitler's was of dark-skinned people and in the US we don't consider that genocide if we or our kind do it. Why was Hitler's killing of a much smaller number called genocide by the west? Because he dared do it to white people. How many A Bombs did we drop on white people? If we do it to other races it's not genocide. The whole US economy is based on our war machine and our war machine is at least now, used exclusively to kill dark-skinned people in multitudes like non-humans. At risk of citing Chomsky here, there's an article where he describes how it's basically a matter in the US of if we do it's not genocide. That's not an international law. That's law of the jungle and the most powerful. In the US we're conditioned to commit what is internationally considered genocide without batting an eye. And in elections genocide is just another rather unimportant issue. https://truthout.org/articles/noam-chomsky-how-the-us-politically-vulgarizes-genocide-and-war-crimes/

genocide matters to some people.

For Americans that visitor visa thing can be a bitch, although there are temp visas I hear now to St. P from Tallin and Helsinki. I visited the consulate here in DC for a visa and it was like a trip back into the 1960's. I gave up when they wanted my dad's birth certificate. Possibly the most gorgeous guys in the world are on Chaturbate in St P but Sauter and a couple others here said St P is hard to meet guys, even though there's a hustler bar, because everyone lives far out in suburbs. I think there's a "Blue Boy" site also but Russia is notorious for fake ads. Just like tomatoes...... I'd rather see and squeeze before I buy.

Jill Biden was perfect, as usual. She should have been the first woman president. And it was nice to have a speaker who's not an international war criminal for a change too. .

Tomas deCastro seems to be following a new trend of advertising on Twitter as an escort complete with phone number. He's in Prague now. https://twitter.com/maxim_cermak?s=20

You're comparing a public candidate for office with a poster on a blog in the politics forum. You know perfectly well there are certain rules for minimal respect to other commenters or else blogs like this degenerate into vicious personal attacks on each other. I follow Chomsky mildly and I always agree with him on almost every issue I hear him on. I immediately listened to the video AdamSmith put up. But I never claimed to be a Chomsky "expert". I am also a Bernie voter but as I explained I don't care whether Sanders and Chomsky tell me to vote for someone or not when there's a matter of genocide involved (and the US is the genocide king of the world, especially the middle east now). Iran and Russia are both in the crosshairs and Syria, Lebanon, Yemen and Libya still are being bombed. Trump is a batshit crazy moron and bigot capitalist but for some reason he has not done the mass killing I have no doubt Hillary would have continued doing and he wasn't even in favor of invading Iraq when all these others were. That was 1 million we killed. With war on Iran and Russia real possibilities from the warmongers controlling the country in both parties, I'm not about to support someone as if genocide is just another issue. Hitler built wonderful highways and hospitals. But whatever your identification with some candidate is, I expect common decency from other commenters to not degenerate into personal ad hominem attacks on each other. It's irritating but also boring intellectually.

snide personal insults to other posters seems to be your main thing.

Too bad they didn't let this one go live, it would have been the highlight of the day. And a lot more interesting than anything the fascist party #2 telethon had. Michigan may well decide the election again and if Kamala wins it they'll have the feisty gov to thank. (There is some thinking that she did this rehearsed and intentionally to get attention). She's good.

and next up on the Democratic Telethon of pretend reformers: serial rapist of women who worked under him, best buddy of Harvey Weinstein, and 26-time visitor to Jeffery Epstein's Pedophile Island. The man who started the DLC making the Democratic party the real Party of Reagan and became super-rich selling uranium to Russia. Donald Trump's BFF: of course the Clintons aren't the only close friends and gloating admirers of Harvey Weinstein:

Pro-government citizens in Belarus protesting foreign stories that their elections are not democratic inciting demonstrations for democracy. From China to Russia to the USA people are so indoctrinated by propaganda that they refuse to believe their system isn't democratic or is a sham and become irate. It's not just a US thing. The Democratic party nominee told you he would change nothing from Trump, Obama invented the child cages, deported twice as many as Trump could dream of, killed 100,000 more blacks than Trump and the Democratic party is just as owned by the same financial interests that own the Republican party, probably more so, but everyone everywhere wants desperately to believe they live in a democracy and aren't just peasants in an oligarchy. If Kamala executed some black men live on tv and Obama spoke in front of the 100,000 skulls of his black victims it would change almost no minds. Most people are going to always believe what they're indoctrinated to believe to make them feel they are in charge of their own lives.

They say most networks cut away from this to help Dems.

Is it PC to have a lifeless brainless tv star who speaks in a monotone hosting whose only obvious quality is being a fine piece of ass? Very Trumpian. (But to a gay man very boring). Worst.Whatever It Is. Ever

3 more right-wing Republican Party speakers. The "Democratic Party" is history.

2016 all over again. All the DNC knows how to do. Such stupid people. How can people lose to a batshit crazy nothing like Trump twice in a row? Maybe they'll have Kamala execute some black men on live tv.
